I was on Demulen for a while. Unfortunately, over the years I forgot why I switched to it or why I switched off it, but I remember being on it. I think I may have switched due to breakthrough bleeding and/or spotting while on it.

But I guess it doesn't matter because regardless of all pills, every single one of them destroyed my sex drive, and that's why in my book, they all suck.

I was on demulen for a few years w/o any problems. I found this to be the best bcp I've tried so far and I've been taking them for about 12 years. However, recently the pharmacy I use stopped giving me Demulen and switched to the generic version of ZOVIA and I swear its different. I'm on my 3rd month and I'm ready to go back to Demulen and switch pharmacies. Every month I've had soreness when I go to the bathroom and sex hurts a little more than it did (dr said I've had yeast infections) and I believe its the change in bcp. I've been more emotional lately and my husband was the one who pointed out that its been worse in the past few months. So, based on my experience, I'd say stick with the brand for the best results.

Hi, I have been on Demulen and Zovia for 16 yrs. Never had a problem, I am only moody that time of the month. Sometimes when starting a new pack I will feel a little nauseous. Very rarely I had some spotting. Now my pharmacist just switched to generic of Zovia which is Kelnor? Have not been on it long enough to say.:confused:
